The Transient Intermediate Plexiform Layer, a Plexiform Layer-like Structure Temporarily Existing in the Inner Nuclear Layer in Developing Rat Retina
The retina is a highly specialised part of the brain responsible for visual processing. It is well-laminated; three layers containing five different types of neurons are compartmentalised by two synaptic layers. Among the retinal layers, the inner nuclear layer (INL) is composed of horizontal, bipolar, and amacrine cell types. Bipolar cells form one sublayer in the distal half of the IPL, while...
متن کاملSynaptic arrays of the inner plexiform layer in the developing retina of Xenopus.
During embryonic and larval development in Xenopus laeuis, arrays of synapses made by amacrine cells form in two phases: an initial phase of rapid synaptic addition and a second phase of slower addition. In the region near the optic nerve, at which all measurements were made, these synapses first appear at stage 40 (approx 66 hr postfertilization). Connectivity increases at a rate of 8.6 synaps...
متن کاملGap junctions in the inner plexiform layer of the goldfish retina.
Oblique thin sections of the goldfish inner plexiform layer (IPL) were examined to characterize the processes engaging in gap junctions. Omission of en bloc uranyl acetate staining enhanced the relative visibility of gap junctions, thus facilitating surveys. Three general categories were identified: (1) extensive gap junctions between large caliber amacrine cell dendrites presynaptic to ganglio...
متن کاملRod and cone pathways in the inner plexiform layer of cat retina.
In cat retina, rod bipolar terminials do not synapse on ganglion cells but on two types of amacrine cell (types I and II). Cone bipolars synapse directly on ganglion cells and on type I amacrines. The type II amacrine appears to play a special internuncial role between bipolars and ganglion cells in the rod system.
متن کاملDevelopment of synaptic arrays in the inner plexiform layer of neonatal mouse retina.
Retinas from mice of the C57BL/6 strain were sampled at frequent intervals from birth to postnatal day 33 to determine the numerical density of conventional and ribbon synapses within the inner plexiform layer (IPL) as a function of time. Synaptic arrays of the IPL were formed in three phases. During Phase I, from day 3 to day 10, conventional synapses were produced at a mean rate of 0.44 synap...
